I saw Tevin Campbell in the Broadway production of Hairspray in 2006, playing Seaweed. He was quite good actually.

Yes.

Used to love Tevin back in the day but only "Can We Talk" has stayed in my head.

I know about the arrest but did he ever make follow-up statements?

I remember reading something a while back but on reflection it was based on quoted "family members" and "close friends" so maybe not so reliable.

"Round and Round" is the only good thing about Graffiti Bridge.

'halls of desire' (especially the remix - might up this in a bit) is great, definitely prefer it to 'round & round' if we're talking the prince stuff. what is behind door #6?

heard 'shh' last night on V103 (aka the best radio station ever made -- awesome mix of old school disco & quiet storm vibes)

remember this fondly, best thing on that Q album iirc; other than going deep on the smooth jazz the track sounds like some of MJ's arrangements from later that decade (down to the children's chorus), and tevin channels young MJ as well as one could hope.

seven months pass...

Jamie: You don't want to know what your sexuality is?
Tevin: I'm not gay, but there's a lot of different things that I do like, sexually. Being in the business, you are introduced to a lot of different things. I'm not gay, but I'm a freak and I think a lot of people know what a freak is.

Jamie: I don't. What is it?
Tevin: Basically, I'm trying a lot of things. Being open-minded. It has nothing to do with attraction. It's just having fun and I did a lot of that on the road with dancers. We had truth or dare.

Jamie: So you're saying it could be male or female? Whatever is happening at that time?
Tevin: Right, I am not exclusively attracted to men. I'm not gay, but sexually...

Jamie: Would you say you're bisexual?
Tevin: No, just "try-sexual."

Jamie: What is that? You, me and he?
Tevin: Leave that to the imagination.
